Raise your hand if you’re about to head out on your third trip to Vermont in less than two weeks.
*Raises hand.
Also, raise your hand if your current plan includes going back for a fourth trip two days from now.
*Raises hand.
I love me some road trippin’.
This weeks rental truck for the move up to Burlington, VT is free from the tyranny of a rear view mirror*.
*there are side mirrors, of course, and a teeny tiny back up camera display. No word on Apple CarPlay though. Fingers enthusiastically crossed on that one.
Her old apartment was on the second floor. Her new apartment is on the third floor. So many stairs.
If today’s events had happened a year ago, pre gastric bypass, I probably would have died of a massive heart attack by lunch time. I was very pleased that I got to help Bellana in a time of need. I’m also very pleased that I was physically able to pull it off without dropping dead. That felt good, though I’m in tons of pain tonight and I’ll probably sleep until dinner time tomorrow and tonight’s very late dinner gave me the foamies and I’ll probably need another hour to recover.
I wish Jen had been with me, but outside of that it was a really good day.
The first of two moving days in Vermont. The second is next week.
Weren’t we in Burlington, VT just the other day?
Why yes, yes we were. And tomorrow, I’m going back. My step daughter needs help with something and I’m dropping everything and running to her aide.
So Friday through Monday in Vermont, then Friday in Vermont, and next week we’ll have Thursday in Vermont as well. Sounds like a lot of driving for ol’ Robbie, dontcha know!
I love it!
Graduation road trip weekend is coming to a close. I’ve been packing up our stuff and loading up the car. Harry went home with his dad yesterday so it’s just me and Jen and Nana this time.
Bellana is coming to the hotel to have breakfast with us. Bonus time! After that we will check out and head South.
All in all it was a great weekend, celebrating Bellana and her fellow UVM graduates. Congratulations to the class of 2023!
Both of my step kids are students at the University of Vermont. My step son gave us a quick tour of some of one campus while leading us to my step daughter’s ceremony of the day.
Check out my step daughter, getting honored by her college. I promise she’s in this photo.
I promise she’s in this one as well, though she’s a smidge on the blurry side.
We just came from the college of arts and sciences award ceremony. Bellana was recognized for completing the honors college thesis paper and defense.
I am so proud I might spontaneously combust.
We are going to take her out to dinner tonight because it’s also her 22nd birthday. It’s just a big day all around.
